The Louisiana Youth Leadership Forum enables youth with disabilities to grow personally, socially and academically, and to fulfill their potential in their work and lives. Every student should have this opportunity.
Building The Next Generation of Leaders
YLF is an educational and motivational camp held every summer on a university campus. Student will work in small and large groups and work to identify resources that can help them achieve their goals while building lifelong friendships.
Our Speakers address topics such as disability rights laws, innovations in technology, community resources, legislative processes, and much more! Delegates will spend time at the state capitol meeting government officials.
YLF is for students with disabilities!
It is critical students with disabilities identify themselves with pride, as individuals and as members of their community. YLF offers students with common experiences the opportunity to learn from each other in a framework of history and an atmosphere of encouragement.
